The Culture Reacts to Malcolm-Jamal Warner's Untimely Passing
2 of 12

Some people would kill to have some of the spoils Tyga enjoys: fame, platinum singles, and a healthy touring schedule to name a few.

But none of the above make him immune to the vitriol of social media, and for each misstep, you can draw a direct line to these 11 times Black Twitter dragged Tyga.

Carless world, indeed.

Tyga’s Allegedly Smashes Mia Isabella

With America’s attention fully fixated on LBGQ matters, things got really interesting when rumors spread of Tyga getting it in with a transgender model named Mia Isabella. Needless to say, the Internets went in.

Tyga’s Love Of Underage Kylie

Between his Instagram cupcaking and that alleged tattoo of Kylie Jenner, it appears someone needs to remind Tyga of that infamous quote by Ernest Gallo: “We sell no wine before its time.” In this case, that time would be a modest 18 years.

Cash Money Contract

It’s a decidedly bad look when the RIAA says “Rack City” is four times platinum and “Faded” is double platinum, yet you say Cash Money has never cut you a royalty check.

Struggle Fashion Line

As of Saturday, July 25, Tyga’s Last Kings retail store on Melrose and Fairfax is still open for business. Maybe “struggle” is being a bit harsh. But Black Twitter wasn’t particularly kind and VICE piled on by saying Last Kings aesthetic “picks up Egyptian style in a way that’s reminiscent of the Cheesecake Factory?”

Wifing A Stripper

When you find love on the stripper pole it should come as no surprise that you and wifey are beefing via social media and allegedly hacking each other’s accounts.

Those Leaked Pictures

Nude pictures and videos are to be viewed briefly after being taken and promptly destroyed. Anything else implies that they intentionally leaked and subsequently sold for profit. Allegedly calling the FBI doesn’t change that perception.

Bounced Rent Checks

If you’re going to spend $120,000 to decorate your retail spot, maybe you should make sure you’ve visited Rack City enough times to pay your rent on time.

MTV’s Bustas

Perhaps the most damning evidence against Tyga was his appearance on the MTV show Bustas and telling the cameras he enjoyed a cushy suburban existence before doing an about face and claiming Compton.

King Tyga’s Gold Brick

There are two schools of thought here. Either Tyga didn’t care about sales, so the 2,200 units he moved of The Gold Album: 18th Dynasty are all icing on the cake. The other opinion would be that Tyga’s much-ballyhooed independent project mimicked a fish out of water.

Calling Drake Fake

Has anyone cared enough about the juvenile beef between Tyga and Drake to care about it’s origins? Tyga fired a few sophomoric shots on Twitter and in VIBE offering Drake the fade among other things…

“6PM In New York”

And when Drake responded by saying, “You need to act your age and not your girl’s age,” Black Twitter erupted like a barbershop or your living room during a knockout round of a fight party.
